Chirurgische Therapie von Lebermetastasen kolorektaler Karzinome
2003
Resection is the only curative treatment of colorectal liver metastases proofed by a long-term follow-up. The operation is indicated if the metastases are completely removable with sufficient liver parenchyma remaining after resection and if the patient is fit for surgery. The resection is not indicated in cases with non resectable extrahepatic tumours and lymph node metastases distal the hepatoduodenal ligament. The postoperative mortality amounts to about 5 % and the 5-year-survival-rates range between 20 and 40 % depending on the selection of patients. Aims of new concepts of operative therapy are the improvement of resectability by preoperative portal vein embolization, the resection co…
Successful Extensive Multiorgan Resection of Malignant Duodenal Tumor: A Case Report
2020
Summary Duodenal adenocarcinoma is one of the rarest tumours of all gastrointestinal malignancies. Due to rarity and late symptoms, duodenal cancers are diagnosed in late stage, but overall survival rate is high. We present a case of locally advanced duodenal adenocarcinoma with successful surgical treatment including multiorgan resection.
Resection of esophageal diverticulum through uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery
2018
Open surgery remains the standard strategy for management of esophageal diverticulum in symptomatic patients. However, in the last years an increasing number of minimally invasive approaches have been proposed for this issue in order to reduce the surgical trauma and favor a fast return to daily activity. Herein, we describe a novel technique as uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) for performing resection of esophageal diverticulum. This procedure was successfully carried out in three consecutive patients with giant mid-esophageal diverticulum (mean size: 6.5±0.5 cm). The mean post-operative time was 121±10 minutes. The chest drain was removed 48 hours later in all cases a…
EP755 Laparoscopically modified laterally extended endopelvic resection for gynecological malignancies involving pelvic side wall: a feasibility anal…
2019
Introduction/Background Lateral pelvic side wall involvement by gynecological malignancies has been considered for a long time an absolute contraindication to curative resection. Recently the surgical paradigm is challenged with the development of the Laterally Extended Endopelvic Resection, LEER. Although the LEER is perfectly standardized in open surgery, just one small experience has been published about its endoscopic feasibility.The objective of this study is to analyze the feasibility of Laparoscopically Modified Laterally Extended Endopelvic Resection, LM-LEER, in patients with gynecological malignancies involving the lateral pelvic side wall. Methodology We retrospectively evaluated…

It has been claimed that endoscopic calcaneoplasty offers some advantages over open techniques in the surgical treatment of Haglund’s deformity due to reduced postoperative complications like stiffness and pain. Bony over-resection places patients at risk of these complications. The resulting question with regard to the quantitative differences of the extent of the bone removed using these two techniques has not yet been answered. The purpose of the study was to determine the resection volume of calcaneal bone for open and endoscopic surgical techniques.
The use of a questionnaire for improvement of postoperative analgesia after transurethral resection of the prostate
2003
Abstract Background : Postoperative analgesic studies with methods like i.v. patient controlled analgesia (i.v. PCA) or epidural analgesia have reported effective pain relief after major surgery, also after urologic cancer surgery. In contrast, systematic results after minor urologic surgery are widely unknown, although the pain intensities may be high for a short time. The aim of the study was to evaluate the usefulness of a pain questionnaire as a measurement tool of postoperative analgesic quality after transurethral resection of the prostate (TUR-P). Methods : A questionnaire of the American Pain Society (APS) for quality assurance of postoperative pain therapy was adapted to estimate t…

Ergebnisse der bilateralen Operationstechnik bei primärem Hyperparathyreoidismus
2001
AIM OF THE STUDY The surgical success rate and clinical outcome after surgery for primary hyperparathyroidism were evaluated in a prospective long-term follow-up study. PATIENTS AND METHODS 407 patients, 396 with the first manifestation, 6 with recurrent and 5 with persistent disease underwent operation from August 1, 1987 to August 15, 1999. All patients were prospectively investigated in a long-term follow-up study and underwent reexaminations at regular surveillance intervals. The postoperative course is known in 93.9% of all patients. RESULTS The prevalence of asymptomatic primary hyperparathyroidism was 5.6% in our patients. Surgical cure was obtained in 97.7% of patients after initial…
Does the Artery-first Approach Improve the Rate of R0 Resection in Pancreatoduodenectomy? A Multicenter, Randomized, Controlled Trial
2019
[Objective]: To compare the rates of R0 resection in pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) for pancreatic and periampullary malignant tumors by means of standard (ST-PD) versus artery-first approach (AFA-PD). [Background]: Standardized histological examination of PD specimens has shown that most pancreatic resections thought to be R0 resections are R1. “Artery-first approach” is a surgical technique characterized by meticulous dissection of arterial planes and clearing of retropancreatic tissue in an attempt to achieve a higher rate of R0. To date, studies comparing AFA-PD versus ST-PD are retrospective cohort or case-control studies. [Methods]: A multicenter, randomized, controlled trial was conducte…
